On June 21, Hospes Infante Sagres celebrates 74 years of history, hospitality, and excellence. As the first five-star hotel in the city of Porto, inaugurated in 1951, it has since become a national hospitality icon, a setting for meetings, stories, and celebrations that span generations. Over the years, it has welcomed heads of state, royalty, artists, and world-renowned figures such as the Dalai Lama, U2, Bryan Adams, Oliver Stone, and many others.

To mark this special date, the hotel will open its doors to the city with an Open Day, inviting all those who wish to discover this historic and recently renovated building to visit and be warmly welcomed. According to Ana Espregueira Mendes, Director of Sales & Marketing, “this is an important milestone in the hotel’s journey, marking 74 years of true hospitality, service excellence, and the creation of unforgettable memories for all who visit us.”

The highlight of the celebration will take place at 5 PM, with a symbolic toast gathering staff and guests in a heartfelt moment of unity and gratitude. It is a tribute to everyone who has been, and continues to be, part of this legacy, as well as a celebration of the city where it all began.
